    Hello there,

    My question is that in we hear that from scholars and people of knowledge that we shouldn’t be imitating disbelievers etc, and concept of “Tashabbuh”. And does this thing apply only to things that are religious? Like doing something that would give the impression that I’m from another religion etc, or it can be also applied to things of culture like if someone shaves and dresses in full suit, so they would look exactly culturally to the English. So what is the details of it? Or is it like it’s necessary for us to maintain our external identity so that we are recognized as Muslims

    Lean the principle first. Isalm condems a things or act which is unethical or immoral. To imitate a religious rituals of other religions is objectionable, but there is not problem with cultural or habitual copying or following others.

    Islam has not made it a problem for Muslims to be recognized distiguised from others. They should be the people of their culture. However they should not adopt anything which unetical or prohibited in Islam.
